Finding the perfect serum to strengthen and protect your skin barrier is really important, especially if you have sensitive, dry or damaged skin.
This serum from Vegreen claims to restore and reinforces the skin’s natural defense whilst being hydrating and soothing. My skin is super dry and I am always looking for products that can help with hydration.

My thoughts on VEGREEN Skin Barrier Reishi Serum
Packaging
The packaging is just simple and clean. It comes in a regular plastic pump bottle which is easy to use and fills its purpose. I do prefer it to be in a plastic container since I always see myself dropping it on the bathroom tiles (hasn’t happened yet though, but I still picture it).
Texture, scent and application
The texture is gel like but also watery and really lightweight. It is easy to apply and absorbs fast into the skin without leaving any sticky feeling behind.
It is scented, but it has a mild herbal scent from its extracts and nothing that is overpowering. I do prefer my skincare products to be without scent but this is really not a scent that is bothering me.
Directly after applying it my skin feels really smooth and hydrated. It is a perfect serum that works well with all my other skincare products.

Performance and results
I have been using the VEGREEN Skin Barrier Reishi Serum consistently until I finished the bottle. And for me the results are not over the top but more a better feeling in my skin.
I do have really dry skin and it can be a huge issue living in Sweden were the weather is often cold and dry. But my skin felt more hydrated and less effected by the outside. My dry patches were not as noticeable and my skin just felt happier on its own.
It does a great job in locking in the moisture. Not as much as I don’t still use a lot of moisturizing products but more that the moisture that is already in my skin lasts the whole day.
Who is it for?
This serum is great for anyone with sensitive, irritated, or dehydrated skin.
Conclusion
The VEGREEN Skin Barrier Reishi Serum is a great skin barrier strengthen serum that I think we all could use in our skincare routine. It does a great job in locking in the moisture and making it last for the whole day. It also does a great job in strengthen my skins barrier (at least I think it does). You should not look at this serum as a quick fix (most serum actually isn’t), but more a serum to use for long term. I absolutely recommend you to try it out.
I give this product 7/7
